Right elbow: 13 days on herbal medicine with acupuncture and Tui Na twice a week.

My psoriasis seems to be going in cycles. What I haven't documented on this blog is that in the beginning of my treatment I saw results of clearing within three days of taking the herbal remedy. The psoriasis cleared significantly after a few days and then slowly came back a little bit, and is now clearing again. But I have seen this type of cycling before when changing my diet. The clearing is definitely more stable after taking the herbal drink though.

It's important to point out that I think my strict diet of no sugar, wheat, and alcohol plays a huge part in clearing my skin. I also try not to eat junk food or drink sodas, although I might drink a diet soda or eat some chips about once a week. I'm sure that drinking a green smoothie is also a huge contributor to clearing (as well as just giving me more energy!).
